The Fujifilm FinePix F470 is a stylishly slim and well-built ultra-compact with an aluminum body. At 19.7mm (0.8 in.) thin, it is JeansPocket™ Certified.

This camera is strictly targeted to Point-and-Shoot photographers. It has 6.0MP resolution, a 3x optical zoom, and very good image quality. AUTO and Scene Modes (SP) simplify shooting, and a limited Manual (M) scene mode (essentially Programmed Auto mode) allows exposure compensation and preset White Balance control.

The extra large 2.5-in. LCD monitor has an average 115,000 pixels resolution with a fast refresh rate of 60fps for a very clear and smooth display.

Autofocus will hunt for 1-2 sec. in low-light or with low contrast subjects before locking and allowing the shutter to fire. if you prefocus, there is no practical shutter lag.

ISO 64 and 100 produce very low noise images. Chromatic Aberration can be a problem in high contrast shots.

The Fujifilm FinePix F470 has good looks and handling, and more importantly, it is point-and-shoot simplicity to use and produces very good image quality.
